Former Decker instructor Brian Vandenburgh said he set up two classrooms in Louisville with new equipment for carpentry and electrical classes, but the rooms were there only to pass inspections by accreditors. He said he was told to stack plywood, tools and concrete inside, but students never used any of it.

Vandenburgh said the rooms were poorly designed for workshop classes because they were carpeted. "It should have been painfully obvious something was wrong with the way it was set up for inspection," he said.

Weld took over as chief executive of Decker in January 2005 and has acknowledged becoming involved in its finances and operations.<snip>

<snip>In July, Weld took out a $3 million loan on behalf of Decker while the school slid toward bankruptcy. The following month, the Republican declared his candidacy for governor of New York.
